lincoln canary (& Golden Coppel) 0 Posted August 9, 2013 As Norwich fans I''d say we''re in the best postion to judge travel costs.Personally living in Lincoln means I''m a little more connected to the major road and rail links but its still pretty poor. If only the A47 could be duelled to Peterborough it would make travelling north so much easier for Norwich fans. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Crafty Canary 495 Posted August 9, 2013 As Tilly travels to most away matches in his so-called fanny Magnet, what value do his views on public transport actually have? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JayNCFC 14 Posted August 9, 2013 Through all of these posts at no point were there any suggestions or comments, nor were any asked for by TIL...Representing the views of Norwich fans it may well have been a good idea to ask the Norwich fans their opinion, or maybe someone to offer theirs up.Or did I miss the point here?

The London fixtures included using the underground and for home games I use the bus. 5 other away games last year I agree I did travel by Fanny Magnet so travelling by train,bus,underground and car does give me a limited view of transportation to games both home and away don''t you think ?

Gingerpele 0 Posted August 9, 2013 Using the tube for London games is horrendous. Had to for Chelsea away last season as I was going from Canterbury. Easy to get into London, but getting on the tube was just silly. And 90% of the people on there had no consideration for anyone else, was a little girl nearly crushed because of some rather large ''cockney geezers'' in their Chelsea shirts shoving on when there was already no room.Was almost as bad when I went to and England game as well, and they had extra special services for that. Also thought waiting for half an hour after the game would make it a little more pleasant getting away on the tube, no such luck!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Would''ve thought the BBC would have contacted 1 of the other support groups who regularly use public transport for home and away games. Then again with the BBC moving to Salford they wouldn''t want to harm their reputation by using a London based club as they were often accused of concentrating on London when they were at television centre.
